Abstract:

This edited collection presents papers relating to the state of the art in
Perceptual Dialectology research. The authors take an international view of
the field of Perceptual Dialectology, broadly defined, to assess the
similarities and contrasts in non-linguists’ perceptions of the dialect
landscape. The volume is global in focus, and chapters discuss data gathered
in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, France,
Germany, Austria, and South Korea. The common methods used by many of the
contributors means that readers will be able to draw comparisons from the
breadth of the volume.

The primary focus of this volume is geared toward an examination of dialect
perceptions in and of cities, with an additional goal of presenting empirical,
theoretical, and methodological advancements in Perceptual Dialectology.
Authors’ contributions to the collection examine how the urban setting
influences perceptions of linguistic variation and, in the course of examining
the connections between place and perceptions, explore several interrelated
themes of linguistic variation, including the differences in the perception of
rural and urban areas, processes of perception and language change, and the
relationship between perception and ‘reality’.
